BINGO!!!!!!

The Blog Improvement Project task for the past few weeks has been blog post bingo. We had to look at the 12 types of blog post below, and over the past three weeks, try to write as many of these different kinds of posts as we can.

I found it a lot easier to complete than last time. This is probably because I am more used to varying the type of post I do. I found the definition post the strangest to write – I wasn’t really comfortable with writing definitions of things and although I tried to make a question out of it, I didn’t think it sat very well on my blog. I don’t think there will be any more definition posts on this blog for a while.

I apologise for failing to write a technical ‘how to’ post. I half wrote one on separating ping backs from comments, but it got far too technical for me – I had to rope my husband in, and then realised that there were so many variables depending on how you host your blog, so I had to abandon it! I still think it is an important thing to do though, so if you have the time – search for how to do it, being very specific about the way your blog is set up.

Hey! Congrats! I had a feeling you’d manage all 12! And all your posts were wonderful. No worries about the how to post. In fact, if I had managed to write one, I think I would have gone with a silly, tongue-in-cheek type! Maybe that’ll happen next time!

I did like the variety of posts doing this gave your blog. And apropos of your comment at Sophisticated Dorkiness, I love it when people comment on my book reviews because they disagree with something I’ve said.

I knew you would rock at this. You did last time! I am ashamed to say that my posts don’t vary all that much, I don’t think. If I varied them, I might have an opinion on the toughest one to do, but at this stage, I think they are all pretty easy to do. You won’t find me writing anything technical, however!

BTW, Jackie…just finished RAHL. OMG. Just mop me up. How the heck am I going to write the post for this one?

I’m a bit late to this party but I think I’m going to try and do some of these posts just to mix things up a bit. Great job! And do you mind if I borrow the way you list your books read, coming up and waiting to be reviewed format? I really like it!

Congrats! I’m glad you were able to finish all of them — I certainly didn’t

Other people have mentioned having problems with the definition post, that it just seems too intimidating or awkward for their blog. So that’ll be something I think about if I do bingo again sometime outside the BIP.

I am notoriously fussy in my reading tastes, so the star rating will only help if you have a similar reading taste to mine. I tend to abandon books I am not enjoying.
